So i have been travelling the Americas for six months and have made it my mission to find a computer as often as possible to follow this blog. I land in Heathrow on the 22nd of September and the day before the Sartorialist does a book signing in my favourite London shop…Gutted.

Mr Schuman, congratulations, Sir, on all your achievements which I am sure have come not without a lot of courage.

The obstacles you have surmounted are usually the obstacles that would keep otherwise as artistic a men from doing what they feel is right. I guess the nagging little voice inside of us all sometimes becomes too vociferous for us to remain stationary. Well done to you.

I just wanted to note the above as today, being my 42nd birthday, has been a very introspective moment for me, summarizing all that has happened so far and one of the things I wanted to do was write a book.

It sounds easy, just follow your heart, follow the little voice, do what you want to do, listen to the inner mofo, etc.

Wish I could have made it as well! I interned at Liberty this summer with the Visual Merchandising team, and it is such a lovely store! It is truly a great venue for The Sartorialist! Can't wait to hear more about the pop-up shop in menswear!!
